STUDY VISA
A Study Permit isn't just a piece of paper; it's your ticket to experiencing world-class education in Canada at a Designated Learning Institution (DLI). It's important to note that a study permit itself is not a visa. When your permit is approved, IRCC automatically issues a temporary resident visa (or an eTA) so you can actually board your flight and enter the country. We help you secure this permit before you pack your bags, ensuring you are cleared to study, live, and potentially work part-time in Canada. This permit not only allows students to study in Canada for temporary period, but also indicates the education institution they are attending and course of study.
Designated Learning Institution (DLI)
It is a school approved by a provincial or territorial government to host international students. International student required an acceptance letter from a designated learning institution.
All primary and secondary schools in Canada are designated learning institutions but if you plan to attend a post-secondary school, make sure it is part of DLI list.
